Doing Without

For the past week and a half or so, I've been without my laptop. I've been able to occupy myself just fine, but this has shown me just how many things I have on my computer, and how easy it is for me to spend time on my computer when I could be doing other things....

Book Metaphors

I came across an entry in one of my notebooks, and it was good to be reminded that God is the Author of life, and He knows how to write and finish good stories. When life happens and things change, whether we like those things or not, we need to turn the page. And...

Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

Thankful for Friends

In Sunday School, the two, three, and four year-olds have been learning about Joseph in Egypt after his brothers sold him as a slave. Even though Joseph wasn't supposed to be there and hadn't done anything wrong, he still decided that he was going to keep believing in...

Praying the Bible

Last night at church the pastor talked about prayer, and how sometimes we can get bored with it. He pointed out that it's not wrong that we pray about the same old things, but sometimes saying the same old things about the same old things is the problem. Too often we...

Observations on Humans

I've heard a few people say that it can sometimes be fun and helpful to talk about humans as if you're not one, and you're pointing out all the fun, adorable, and wholesome things they do. I figured I'd give it a go. Humans love a good story, especially if it talks...
